FarmVille Botanical Garden & Gift Box glitch

In a new FarmVille glitch, FarmVille Freaks are reporting that their Gift Box is doing some strange and unusual things.

The most common report is that farmers FarmVille Gift Boxes are being found filled with Botanical Garden building supplies. The Botanical Garden was a past limited edition building, now retired, that required you to have the help of your neighbors to build. It is not a building with purpose and does not provide storage.

As reported by FarmVille Freak OctaviousOrion,

    I got a glitch somehow in Farmville and I posted about it myself and had others say they got the same thing. I opened up my FarmVille page and noticed I had nearly 70 gifts....and 49 of those were the materials needed to build the Botanical Gardens previously released by FarmVille. In no way did i have any part in receiving these, they just showed up. I'll include the screenshot of what i received. (See Picture below)" – FarmVille Freak OctaviousOrion



Similarly FarmVille Freak Dustin experienced this as well,

    "I logged into my farm this afternoon and found something weird in my Gift Box. Before I signed off last night I knew I didn't have over 70 items.. so I checked and found all of the Botanical Garden items in there. I already completed the Botanical Garden when it came out, and it's in my storage. I don't know where all these items came from, and I didn't accept any old requests. Anyone else have the same thing happen to them? You can see all the items in this screen shot, and there are 9 Glass Tiles on the first page of my Gift Box, not included in the screen shot." – FarmVille Freak Dustin

Mafia Wars: Log in this weekend to pimp your properties for free

According to a little stealth update in Mafia Wars, Zynga plans to give everyone a free upgrade to their property some time this weekend. While we can't say exactly how many upgrades there will be, we know that you'll be able to apply them to any of your properties in any given city.

The information appears as a small banner ad on your home page that reveal more information once clicked. While free items, apologies and upgrades are nice, we hope this isn't all that Zynga meant when they promised improvements.

Treasure Isle Dragons will take you to lands that are Timeless in China

A new feature appeared in Treasure Isle this weekend that continues the exotic Asian Isles map sets, the Dragon. You heard that right, not the Dragon Sailboat. Zynga decided to quit beating around the bush and give us treasure hunters what we really want: to ride on our very own fierce, majestic dragon.

It's too bad when you find the magical lizard he's sickly and pathetic (since when do dragons get sick?). Fortunately, nursing the little baby back to health will open up a whole new map for you to explore called Timeless in China, which holds eight new islands to find shinies in. Finding the dragon currently seems like a random occurrence, but once you do find him, throw him in the good old backpack and take him to your Home Island. It's there that you can click on the legged, sickly snake to ask six of your friends to help bring him back to good health, though one new friend will automatically come by each day to help if your friends are slowpokes.

You can also pay up 30 Island Cash, or about $5 USD, to bring him into his own instantly Seriously, even if you don't have six friends, it's only six days. We think you can wait. Once fully healed, the dragon is what you'll need to access the Timeless in China maps. Good luck finding the dragon and exploring the Timeless in China maps. Just don't get lost in there, because unlike in Hollywood wushu flicks where that's cool and exciting we call that addiction. And that's just no fun.

YoVille: Get creative with your free gifts

yoville free gift creativity

Do you have tons of YoVille free gifts stocked up but no idea what to do with them? Here's couple of unique and creative ideas to make the best of them! Featuring Romantic rugs and doors, Cottage chests, bookshelves and paintings!

Are your Cottage Chests too big for your rooms? No worries, they are just the right size for making roofs and trains. Cottage paintings make nice walls for the buildings when placed over each other as boardings.



Or you can use the chests for lining up the rooms, make the railings etc. like Queen KK WYID has done in her lovely Smokey Mt Lodge Lobby:

FarmVille looking to Windows Phone 7 to sow seeds of addiction

FarmVille on Windows Phone 7At the recent GigaOm Mobilize Conference in San Francisco, general manager of developer and platform evangelism Matt Thompson claimed that the "hook" Windows Phone 7 will have other smartphones is Xbox Live integration, according to Venture Beat. More importantly, Thompson also mentioned briefly during his time on stage at the GigaOm event that (drum roll, please) FarmVille will be one of the many games coming to Windows Phone 7.

This is the second mobile platform that Zynga will officially be taking its insanely addictive Facebook farming game to (can you guess where you can find it already?). With the San Francisco-based social game creator looking for Android developers, it can't be too long before we're harvesting crops on our Android phones as well.

Whether FarmVille on Windows Phone 7 will take advantage of the phone's Xbox Live features is uncertain, but it is possible considering games on the device are only developed through Microsoft's XNA. A development environment used for Xbox 360's indie games that already allows for Live features, players could add Xbox Live friends as neighbors and share their progress on Xbox Live.

Windows Phone 7 will be available this fall on almost all major carriers, so scratch the, "but there's no FarmVille" excuse off your list of reasons for not getting one of these bad boys.
